Monkeys have reportedly saved a six-year-old girl from being raped by a sex fiend after he tore her clothes off.

The man lured the girl to an abandoned house in Baghpat, in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh, over the weekend, according to several Indian media outlets.

The girl’s parents reportedly claim that the man took off the young victim’s clothes and tried to rape her, but he was interrupted by several monkeys who caused him to flee.

When the terrified girl returned home, she told her parents that the monkeys ‘saved her’ from the man, the Times of India reports.

Her father told local media: ‘My daughter would have been dead by now if the monkeys had not intervened.
